[PATCH] Explicitly convert type to double to avoid losing precision

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Division between integers will also be integer.
Thus, to preserve fractional part explicitly
convert first operand to double.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
